Disable the DHCP Server Feature in the Router
By default, the router acts as a DHCP server. The router assigns IP, DNS server, and default gateway
addresses to all computers connected to the LAN. The assigned default gateway address is the LAN address
of the router.
You can use another device on your network as the DHCP server or specify the network settings of all your
computers.
To disable the DHCP server feature in the router:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
2.
Type http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
